Horny Goat Weed: More Than Just a Name

I popped the question foremost on my mind. "What do you think about epimedium?" I asked. "Is it truly effective as a sex enhancer?" There were smiles all around, and the affirmative shaking of heads. "Oh, yes, yes," exclaimed Dr. Kuang. "We have all used epimedium for decades in our practices. It is the very best sexual tonic for both men and women."

I probed further. Does the plant truly help with erectile function as some claim? Both Dr. Kuang and Dr. Xiao Tong Shen explained that in clinical practice, they have used epimedium to successfully treat erectile problems, to boost waning libido, and to rebuild youthful sexual vitality. "It gives you back your sexual strength," noted Dr. Kuang with emphasis. Hearing unequivocal confirmation of horny goat weed's sex-enhancing effects from the top docs in China gave me confidence that the plant is the real deal.
